Some of you may have noticed my periodic absences over the past six months. Well, much of that has to do with being laid off from my job of eleven years and being forced to take a technical analyst position with a software company that keeps me busy about 14 hours a day.

But you'll be seeing a little more of me for at least the next week while I'm at home recuperating. I went to the doctor last Thursday with what I thought was the flu and ended up being rushed into surgery with a "hot" appendix. So for the next week I'll be chilling in front of the TV letting my incision heal and watching a lot of mindless daytime television. So if you happen to stop by and see that I've been online, give a shout!
